Abstract :
Based on the imaging mechanics of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) mapping shallow sea bottom topography, a new method was proposed using multi-band and full-polarization SAR. If this method was used, it should need fewer in-situ data in multi-band and full-polarization SAR than single-bond and single-polarization SAR for bottom topography measurement. It should be much more accurate
